Progotishil Chhatra Jote (PCJ), an alliance of leftist student bodies, called for countrywide strike at educational institutions on January 29, protesting the attack on demonstrating Dhaka University students by the ruling party’s student wing.
The alliance, ‘Progotoshil Chhatra Jote’ will also hold a rally on Jan 26 on the Dhaka University campus.
Imran Habib, coordinator of the alliance declared the programme at Modhur Canteen of Dhaka University on Wednesday, a day after the leaders and activists of BCL assaulted the demonstrating students.
Earlier on Tuesday, at least 30 students of Dhaka University (DU) were injured as a group of Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) activists allegedly swooped on a student demonstration on the campus.
